As far as the camera concern, Zenfone 4 Max is equipped with 13.0 megapixels dual lens camera with a f/2.0 aperture and LED flash. (Unfortunately more details are scarce at present) PDAF is also there for quick focus in just 0.03 seconds.

Moreover, the rear camera comes with a 120° view of the field puts the Asus Zenfone Max 4 above all the common medium range smartphones as it wide-angle lens allows users for capturing landscape and group shots. There is also 8.0 megapixels front-facing shooter, which is perfectly capable of stitching selfie panoramas at 140°.

The handset comes with two different chipset variants likely to target other markets, Snapdragon 430 octa-core processor, and Snapdragon 425 quad-core processor. Zenfone 4 max allows users to have up to 4GB of RAM and 16/32/64GB inbuilt storage options plus a microSD slot for the further expansion on a rare non-hybrid dual-SIM slot.

The Asus Zenfone Max 4 runs on Asus’s latest ZenUI version based on Google’s latest Android 7.0 Nougat. The phone measures 154×76.9×8.9mm and weigh 181 grams. It also has a fingerprint sensor (as it is common these days) on the front that can unlock the Asus Zenfone 4 max phone in just 0.3 seconds.

The two biggest highlights of Asus Zenfone 4 Max are its dual lens camera and a huge 5000 mAh battery, which allow fast charging and device also can be used as power bank as well, but this isn’t the attractive feature to have because it is now a standard feature among all the smartphone series from Asus.

The bad thing about Asus Zenfone 4 Max is that in box charger is weak (10W only) if we relate it to other Asus smartphone chargers, it takes a long time of 4 hours to fully charge the battery. But still a 15 minutes charge would be enough for 3 hours of talk time. Here the plus point is that the battery will remain cool during the charging period.
